When grandmother was breaking
her hack over the washtub, little did
she think that the lather she made
would be an. inspiration for the won-
der stago spectacle of 1922. And
yet, it is millions of soap bubbles,
combined with various colored light
ing, that makes the thousands who
have attended Georgo E. Wlntxs
wondrous musical comedy "Eve"
lift their eyes in wonderment at the
Love Lath" In the second act. This
attraction, with Nyra Brown and
Johnny Getz is shown at the Derry
Theatre tonight.
Poor grannie's; washtubs were a
step nearer to the new electric
washing machines. It s this prin-
ciple of the electric washing ma-
chines, on a colossal scale that is be-
ing used in "Eve" to create this
boiling lava effect. A tank load of
chipped soap and tanks of water,
plus a secret chemical mixture,
churned by a score of electric fans,
and as Keller, the magician, used to
say, "That's how it Is done." Twenty
men aro required to operate six
'tanks, which, with 18,000 perfora-
tions apiece, produce ou the author
ity of George E. Wintz, who ought to
know. 1,000,000 bubbles a second.
And letting Johnny Getz out into
your story, "If you don't believe
there's that many, count them your-
self."
When one listens to the comments
of the audience during the ehowiug,
une suspects that soap bubbles are
a novelty, the opinions are generally
divided as to the real basis of the
effect. A few think the effect is
produced by illusion, and an electric
spotlight has been offered as an-
other solution.
It's rather difficult for the audi-
ence to conceive that such huge and
colossal banks of feathery bubbles
can be made in such a short time,
and produco the wonderful stage ef-
fect. Twenty dainty, bewitchln*
ghls, an.d Nyr Brown are all con-
| sealed rn them. From a height of
nearly fifteen feet, the bubbles des-
cend until they cover the entire
stage.
